    @virginmedia Pre install Refused to acknowledge any wrong, wouldn't get anyone to even attempt to look till 24th, cust. Service refused to engage as pre installs problem, so am left still with no Internet and no way to sort issues, plus having been spoke to rudely

    You still have not fixed the internet at Sw4 @virginmedia ???? What do you reckon your subscribers think of you? Good or bad ???

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

  • nicktippett
    Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

    @virginmedia @Jaym7t5 My system is down since about 4pm

    @virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?

  • mobiusb2
    Baz, Wacky worm! (@mobiusb2) reported from Lambeth, England

    Oh great Broadband broken! , and now got to wait in for Virgin media to fix it tommorow afternoon. Probably punishment for not watching the funeral.

    @virginmedia Broadband gone down again in SE3 8HT area, I’ve reset the hub 3times and still no Wi-Fi or broadband. I’m using data on my phone again.

    Apologies for the stream interruption last night folks- @virginmedia my ISP is dealing with a large service outage. Hopefully back up tonight!

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s been erratic all day on both connections and your service check says no issues identified. One minute it’s doing 40-60mbps then it’s just plain dead but shows a connection

  • befitat50
    Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on again with this internet at sw4? You just can’t fix a problem? Please don’t come up with your usual excuses and fix itttttt..

  • ravinrr80
    Ravin 🇹🇹🇬🇧 (@ravinrr80) reported from Merton, England

    Hey @virginmedia I already am paying more with this new package I was forced to take to renew my contract recently and now you want to force me to pay £7 MORE a month?! Also why can I not get a human on the phone?! I refuse to pay a penny more. Fix this nonsense.

  • ninepine

    @YodelOnline OK have sent DM with details of the *Three* shipments @virginmedia have now sent due to their faulty software or equipment none of which shipments have been provided with a two hour delivery window by the carrier @YodelOnline as promised. Truly awful customer service.

  • Avoiceonly2

    @virginmedia @massrossini1 System was restored this AM then stopped again at 4pm cannot do no work at all and customer service lines busy

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Kingswood, England

    .@virginmedia - well done. Definitely the worst and most customer hostile new login system to my unwanted "Virgin Media O2 ID". So badly designed your email points to an invalid URL of to manage this insanity. Who approved or tested this? Total fail.

    @virginmedia I have had internet issues since September last year I have called up too many times to count and once again internet is out in SW19 and now you want to rise your prices. Please can I get a solution and not one that means a technician cancels last min today!!

    Mr. Mickey (@MrMickey142) reported

    @Argos_Online I've always thought Virgin Media were the unanimous heavyweight champions of 'couldn't give a ****' customer 'care' but today, I've just realised (only because I deal with VM a lot more) that there's a genuine contender - a great white 'hope'!🤬 DISGUSTING!

  • ferdi_rezvan
    Ferdi Rezvan (@ferdi_rezvan) reported

    @virginmedia Multiple random outages over 24 hours, and your virgin status page does not work properly. Should have stayed with BT in 2 years and had no outages. Regret joining virgin media , poor internet and poor technical support.

  • mikey_mol
    Mikey Molfessis (@mikey_mol) reported

    @virginmedia if your technicians cannot fix a problem in 4 weeks and I get no refund and your status update says everything is fine, but multiple people in the area are affected, do me a favour and stop calling me to sell me additional services. Please.

    @SuzieD755164 @RTEOne @virginmedia Weak men created bad times, bad times create strong men, strong men create good times.. that’s what happening now, the incompetence of these elites has pushed us into the dark ages.. now people are rising to bring back common sense and stability

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported

    @virginmedia Apology accepted but your data is clearly bad and your systems faulty if you have to rely on assumptions not truth. Sadly symptomatic of @virginmedia - @ICOnews should investigate. When your systems also wrongly say I haven't paid my bill in full it's systemic not unusual.😡

  • ThingsByNik
    Nik (@ThingsByNik) reported

    @SparkyLotus @youfibre I’ve had You Fibre and Virgin Media knocking last few last weeks, so seems it’s still a thing for broadband sales. I always say that I will never buy anything that someone knocks at my house to sell.

  • MsLiberty1776US
    Charlotte Riggio (@MsLiberty1776US) reported

    @virginmedia 6 hours and no response to the DM you asked for We apologised for the inconvenience caused. We have arranged for a specialised technician to visit you today between 12 PM and 4 PM to resolve both the TV . Your complaint has been raised and will remain open to ensure everything is fully resolved, and you will receive confirmation of the appointment via text message.

    @virginmedia @kimtaylor18 In 2026 I cannot understand why people want to pay for a TV service that you can subscribe to yourself. I have Virgin 1Gb then I subscribe to Netflix Amazon Prime & Disney, when it's F1 season I subscribe to Sky sports but I can cancel when I want at no extra charge

    We have not received or seen any further updates from Virgin Media. According to their Service Status page, an issue does still exist but the fix time has not changed. If any customers are still experiencing issues, we would recommend getting in touch with them directly.
